I Created the Myth of the Old Ruler

Just when Lu Kan was feeling soft after winning an award in Cannes, the Berlin Golden Bear jury became troubled.

According to current normal rules, you cannot participate in the three major film festivals at the same time.

In other words, if you want to win the award of this film festival, you must premiere it at this film festival. Therefore, in the past ten years, no film has won the grand prize of two film festivals at the same time.

These are somewhat mutually exclusive.

After all, according to the judges' standards, if a film wins the Palme d'Or, it naturally shouldn't win the Golden Bear or Golden Lion.

After all, literati are always a little bit dismissive of each other. If you think it is good, I must pick a little thorn in it, otherwise it will always feel like I am following your style in judging awards.

But this time, "All Quiet Spring" left the Golden Bear judges a little unsure.

These judges had all seen the film in France and were naturally shocked.

If "All Quiet Spring" premieres at the Berlin Film Festival, there is no doubt that the relevant awards at the Golden Bear Awards will go to Lu Ting, and he will give them as much as he wants!

But now, the Palme d'Or has gone one step ahead and awarded the grand prize.

What about our Golden Bear Award?

If you want to say that Lu Jian is not allowed to participate in the exhibition, then isn’t the quality of this year’s Golden Bear Awards worse than the Palme d’Or by more than a dozen Golden Lion Awards?

But if Lu Tan is allowed to participate in the exhibition, wouldn't others say that the aesthetics of the Golden Bear Awards are not good and they only follow the trend?

The judges were confused.

Of course, they finally compromised.

Just imagine, if future generations look back at the works of the three major art film festivals this year and find that the Palme d'Or is "All Quiet Spring", and the Golden Bear and Golden Lion are other films, will they be disapproving of the Golden Bear Award? Doubts about the level of review?

What's even more terrible is that if the Golden Bear Awards follow the rules and do not allow "All Quiet Spring" to participate in the selection, the Italian guys who eat potatoes every day will make an exception and let "All Quiet Spring" win the Golden Lion Award.

Then where do I, the great German, put my face?

Thinking of this, the judges accepted the nomination of "All Quiet Spring".

Of course, "All Quiet Spring" can sweep Cannes, and naturally it can sweep Berlin.

In July, the Golden Bear Awards, which are rarely held in the summer, "All Quiet Spring" completed a grand slam, winning the Golden Bear Award for Best Picture, the Silver Bear Award for Best Director, Best Leading Actor and Best Screenplay. several major awards within.

So far, "All Quiet Spring" has only won the Golden Lion Award in Venice in its journey to the three major art film festivals.

As this film is released one after another in various countries and regions, more and more people have experienced what is called "lun's healing of people's hearts".

In North America, a special commentator of the New York Times commented on Lu Jian’s works:

"All Quiet Spring is a film that guides people to feel hope by showing despair. Just like many war movies, although they depict every bit of war in detail, they actually evoke the common people by truly showing the cruelty of war. The public's fear and disgust of war have achieved the goal of anti-war, and this film directed by Lu Jian undoubtedly caused this through the detailed description and portrayal of a world full of despair and the destruction of beautiful things. The audience's hatred and fear of such a world makes them cherish the existing world more and be full of hope for life. Therefore, it can be said that this is an anti-despair movie!"

In the UK, "The Times" interviewed a professor of imaging and communication at the University of Cambridge and asked her about her views on "All Quiet". She said:

“All Quiet Spring is an experimental film that the audience, director, and actors participated in. When the audience finishes watching the plot, they become part of the plot, and they perform it together with other audiences who have not yet watched it. In addition to the content of the plot, director Lu Jian made the audience empathize with the audience through delicate emotions, gorgeous pictures, and cruel plots, and achieved the current effect. It can be said that such scripts may appear in the future, and such directors may There will be actors like this in the future, but the only one that can achieve perfection by overlapping the three is this one, All Quiet."

The island country, as the country most similar to the background and island in "All Quiet," their report "The Yomiuri Shimbun" denounced Lu Kanzaki's movie.

"Although the culture of the island country shown in "All Quiet Spring" is impeccable and vividly reflects the beauty of physical sorrow, the Japanese government and our country's government are definitely not the same. Our country will not deceive and kill innocent girls like in the movie. Director Lu Jian’s act of insinuating and satirizing our country’s traditional culture through the film is blasphemous to art!”

Of course, despite criticism, "All Quiet Spring" quickly took first place at the box office in the island country. Coupled with the seriousness of the island people, the box office continued to rise and quickly reached the number one position of the year.

Wang Qing, a reporter from "China Film Report", was fortunate enough to interview Lu Jian and wrote a brief interview.

Q: Director Lu Jian, what do you think of the international praise for "All Quiet"?

a: I think art has no borders. This movie can make everyone feel something similar, transcending culture and country. This shows that our human civilization has certain commonalities, and these commonalities are the bonds that maintain our society.

q: What do you think of the negative comments from the island country’s official media?

a: What I show is the style of Wadao. It may be similar to the real country, but in fact it is completely different. Regarding the behavior of some people, I can only doubt their level of leisure.

q: Some people say that you are a domestic director, but you use the background and culture of other countries to make movies, and you are suspected of worshiping foreign countries. What do you think?

a: The story needs a suitable carrier. This story takes place in Wandao. This is something that neither you nor I can change. I cannot hypocritically tamper with what has happened. My best quality as a person is honesty.

q: Some critics said that you used the label of healing people, but ended up showing an extremely cruel story, and you were suspected of using this propaganda to deceive the audience. What do you think?

a: I don’t think this is a conflict. There are a thousand Hamlets for a thousand readers. Some people think my movie is cruel, some think this movie is healing, and some may think the ending of this movie is not dark and sad enough. Because you can see many different things from one ending, the story can be pondered and savored over and over again.

q: Finally, there is a question about Amber. Her actor has not shown up. Is this some kind of publicity or performance method?

a: Why don't I let her answer this question personally?

q: Then where is Miss Amber?

a: She is right here.
